Graham and Cotton back Israel and push for dismantling of Iran’s nuclear program
- Senators Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton introduced a resolution on May 8, 2025, demanding Iran fully dismantle its nuclear program amid ongoing U.S.-Iran talks in Oman.
- This action follows concerns that the Trump administration's negotiations risk repeating the 2015 JCPOA flaws by potentially allowing Iran to advance nuclear capabilities.
- Graham and Cotton emphasized Iran’s near weapons-grade uranium enrichment, Tehran’s backing of terrorist groups, and the threat posed to Israel and regional stability.
- Graham emphasized that anything less than the full dismantling of Iran’s nuclear program would be unacceptable, while Cotton warned that Iran’s nuclear weapons capability would endanger U.S. Military personnel and represent a profound threat to the security of Israel.
- Their resolution reinforces U.S. Policy that total dismantlement must precede any peaceful nuclear cooperation, signaling continued pressure on Iran to abandon all weapons-grade nuclear activities.
